Hawkesbury Race Club is the destination for NSW racing on Thursday afternoon, as they get set to host an eight-race program. The rail is out +4m between 1100m-450m while the remainder will sit in the true position. The weather suggests a mix of showers and sunshine heading into race day, so we’ll be doing the form for a Good 4 surface prior to the opening race at 1:10pm AEDT.
Best Bet at Hawkesbury: Seneschal
Seneschal was impressive when he resumed at Randwick (Kensington) on October 4 chasing home Queen Of Dragons. The son of Kingman got back towards the rear of the field before finishing off with some strong closing sectionals in the 1400m contest. It was always going to be short of his best trip, and now with a fitness effort under the belt, Seneschal should take dramatic improvement second-up. He’s drawn perfectly to sit closer, this time under Kathy O’Hara, and we expect him to break his maiden status in his sixth-career start.
Best Bet
Race 3 – #3 Seneschal (5)
3yo Gelding | T: Chris Waller | J: Kathy O’Hara (59kg)

Next Best at Hawkesbury: Smart Action
Smart Action will make his debut for the Annabel Neasham yard on Thursday afternoon, and based on what we’ve seen at the barrier trials, this son of Smart Missile should prove hard to beat. His latest jump-out at Warwick Farm on October 9 may seem moderate, with the four-year-old finishing sixth of seven runners three lengths away; however, that’s very deceiving. Visually, he was sensational, trucking in behind his rivals under a stranglehold for Adam Hyronimus. Jockey Regan Bayliss gets the nod from barrier six on race day, and provided he can gain a mid-field position with cover, Smart Action could prove a smart type.

Best Value at Hawkesbury: Duke Of Bronte
The fourth race on the program is a wide-open maiden contest, and we’re more than happy to take the each-way quote about Duke Of Bronte with online bookmakers. The son of Capitalist has produced two eye-catching jump-outs, with the latest at Warwick Farm on October 9 being a winning effort. He stalked his rivals before powering over the top to score narrowly with plenty in hand. He’s drawn awkwardly in barrier nine on debut, but with Tyler Schiller set to navigate a passage, we simply must be with Duke Of Bronte at the price.
Best Value
Race 4 – #4 Duke Of Bronte (9)
3yo Colt | T: Joe Pride | J: Tyler Schiller (56.5kg)
